Microsoft Makes Move To Buy Yahoo PDF Print E-mail

microsoft_yahoo.jpgThough details are still somewhat sketchy, it looks like the persistent rumor of Microsoft devouring Yahoo is getting some teeth. 44 Billion Dollars worth of teeth . Expect more news on this as it breaks, as the details currently are somewhat lacking, but consider this move a serious play in the battle for net supremacy with Google.

This would make this deal the largest internet based acquisition since the $182 Billion AOL/Time Warner debacle in 2001, largely viewed as the worst acquisition in history. Still the battle for net advertising dominance is a real one, with an estimated $80 Billion up for grabs in the net advertising market by 2010. This constitutes an extra 40 Billion reasons when compared to 2007 market scope, so take it seriously.
